Patient's question:
It's the child of one of my good friends. They have contracted hand, foot, and mouth disease. Usually, I take my own child to play with their child. I'm very worried. I really like their child. Could you please ask the doctor what medicine to take for hand, foot, and mouth disease and what to do?Doctor's answer:
Hand, foot, and mouth disease does not currently have any specific drugs that can treat it. However, treatment is based on the patient's clinical symptoms, and relevant medications are used under the guidance of a doctor to address the symptoms. The effects are generally quite good, so there is no need to worry too much. It is important to drink plenty of water, take medications on time, get plenty of rest, and try to avoid crowded places as much as possible. In terms of diet, it should be light and simple.
